What's my play here? Fold preflop (note that I was ahead of the first 2 raisers, JJ came in after I capped)? Fold on the flop? Fold the turn?

Post flop, I knew there was JJ out there, but the pot was building up so quickly I got greedy. The fact that there was 888 and 999 doesn't really matter. I wasn't counting 2 more T's as an out, since I knew I couldn't beat a set of Jacks.

Here's how I got stuck:

There was $87 in the pot after the flop. When I called the first raise after the flop, I was getting almost 10/1 on my call... and then it just kind of snowballed from there.

How the hell did the river get checked through?

I think you should get into the habit of not sharing the results of the hand in your post as it completely biases how people respond. Case in point, as far as the fundamental theorem goes you certainly should not fold at any point in the hand. In fact on the flop you should raise yourself since you'll have the winner slightly more than your fair share. But since I know the results I can't honestly say how I would have played it. Oh yeah and I also am clueless about how that river gets checked through.
my 2 cents

How about reads on the preflop raisers? Unless they were loose raisers, or a loose raiser and an isolator, you shouldn't be playing TT vs a raise and a reraise. You don't have odds to hit a set and are likely dominated by a higher PP.

Edit: the fact that you were ahead of the first two raisers is irrelevant (results oriented). If you could tell me that due to their past play you knew there was a good chance you'd be ahead of them, that's different..
